• Zainab Majed Hassouni from the Department of Horticulture recently completed her M.Sc. defense. Her research explored organic fertilization using mushroom residues (SMC) and alpha-tocopherol on Diyala fig growth. The study demonstrated significant improvements in seedling development through these natural methods.

    Results showed SMC fertilizer and tocopherol spraying boost fig seedling resilience and productivity. These organic approaches help plants withstand high temperatures more effectively. Zainab recommends expanded research on SMC’s potential for other fruit crops.

    This work highlights eco-friendly alternatives to chemical fertilizers in fruit cultivation. The department celebrates Zainab’s contribution to sustainable agriculture practices. Her findings may help farmers improve yields while reducing environmental impact.
